You can't have everything. (Where would you put it? asks Stephen Wright.) With Rodinal you get great tonality and acutance at the expense of grain. I love the look of Tri-X in Rodinal. Ralph Gibson and Sabastio Salgado like this combination, too. (Not that I'm putting myself in their league!) But if you look at their work, the qualities lumped in the generality of "tonality" may become apparent. For a good, general purpose developer, I otherwise recommend Xtol. More speed, finer grain, and good acutance, but without that signature tonality.(posted 8275 days ago)
